    Issue #7472: ISO-2022 charsets now consistently use 7bit CTE.

    Fixed a typo in the email.encoders module so that messages output using
    an ISO-2022 character set will use a content-transfer-encoding of
    7bit consistently.  Previously if the input data had any eight bit
    characters the output data would get marked as 8bit even though it
    was actually 7bit.

  It turns out that email5 (py3k), because it is using unicode for the
  payload, doesn't do the encoding to the output character set until later
  in the process.  Specifically, charset.body_encode no longer does the
  input-to-output charset conversion.  So the if test in the exception
  clause in encoders.encode_7or8bit really is needed in email5.

  So, this merge only merges the test, not the removal of the 'if'.

    Issue #7472: remove unused code from email.encoders.encode_7or8bit.

    Yukihiro Nakadaira noticed a typo in encode_7or8bit that was trying
    to special case iso-2022 codecs.  It turns out that the code in
    question is never used, because whereas it was designed to trigger
    if the payload encoding was eight bit but its output encoding was
    7 bit, in practice the payload is always converted to the 7bit
    encoding before encode_7or8bit is called.  Patch by Shawat Anand.

MIMEApplication() requires a bytes object for its _data, so fix the tests.

We no longer need utils._identity() or utils._bdecode().  The former isn't
used anywhere AFAICT (where's "make test's" lint? <wink>) and the latter is a
kludge that is eliminated by base64.b64encode().

Current status: 5F/5E

Once Barry and the email-sig have a working new version
we'll add it back.
If it doesn't make the 3.0a deadline (release August 31), too bad.

number of tests, all because of the codecs/_multibytecodecs issue described
here (it's not a Py3K issue, just something Py3K discovers):
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2006-April/064051.html

Hye-Shik Chang promised to look for a fix, so no need to fix it here. The
tests that are expected to break are:

test_codecencodings_cn
test_codecencodings_hk
test_codecencodings_jp
test_codecencodings_kr
test_codecencodings_tw
test_codecs
test_multibytecodec

This merge fixes an actual test failure (test_weakref) in this branch,
though, so I believe merging is the right thing to do anyway.

Briefly (from the NEWS file):

- Updates for the email package:
  + All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
    _encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
    Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
  + New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
    Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
    the Parser constructor.  These will be removed in email 3.1.
  + Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
  + All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
  + Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
    added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
  + Updates to documentation.

still 7-bit.

for the email package.  The former is now just a shell project that
has some extra files for packaging for independent use (e.g. setup.py
and README).

Added a compatibility layer so that the same API can be used in Python
2.1 and 2.2/2.3 with the major differences shuffled off into helper
modules (_compat21.py and _compat22.py).

Also bumped the package version number to 2.0.3 for some fixes to be
checked in momentarily.

non-us-ascii character sets in headers and bodies.  Some API changes
(with DeprecationWarnings for the old APIs).  Better RFC-compliant
implementations of base64 and quoted-printable.

Updated test cases.  Documentation updates to follow (after I finish
writing them ;).

<http://sf.net/projects/mimelib>.  There /are/ API differences between
mimelib and email, but most of the implementations are shared (except
where cool Py2.2 stuff like generators are used).
